Bunny Chows & Bottles: A South African Wine Tasting @ NF
About
We’re bringing a whole bunch of South African energy to Old Bridge Cellars for our quarterly wine tasting and food pairing extravaganza and it’s all about flavour.
South Africa is home to some of the oldest vineyards in the Southern Hemisphere, and right now it’s producing wines with serious energy. From historic Stellenbosch estates to the modern movement in Swartland, the country is turning out bright, textured whites (hello, Chenin), structured reds and wines with real personality and value.
We’ll be showcasing a curated line-up of 12 South African wines over 4 stations that showcases exactly that. Come down and explore why these wines and history are so special and hot right now.
Alongside the tasting, we’re teaming up with Perth’s favourite Saffa cuisine on wheels, Big 5 Food Truck, who’ll be serving authentic Bunny Chows: a South African street-food classic. For the uninitiated, that’s a hollowed-out loaf of bread filled with rich, spiced curry. Bold, comforting and unapologetically flavourful. Originating in Durban in the 1940’s to feed the Indian community which was the largest concentration in the world outside of India. Eaten with your hands and filled with bold flavours like garam masala, turmeric, cumin and coriander we cant wait to share. Bring on the bunnies!!
Choose from:
• Mutton Bunny (classic)
• Chicken Bunny
• Bean Bunny (V)
Served with chilli and sambal, all curries are ‘Aussie Hot’ which equals 'mild'.
The wine tasting runs between 12–3pm (final arrivals at 2.30pm), and the Bunny Chows are available as your lunch option before or after you explore the wines.
Hot tip: The tasting takes approx. 40 minutes to try all twelve wines. You can also collect your bunny any time in the 3 hours. To avoid a crowd, we suggest arriving between 1pm-2pm.
